First Ever Cabela’s Regional Walleye Championship set for Lake McConaughy, Ogallala NE

A full field of 100 boats will be in Nebraska at Lake McConaughy July 31st and August 1st for the first ever Cabela’s Regional Walleye Championship. Teams that finished in the top 25 in the Colorado Walleye Association, Kansas Walleye Association, Nebraska Walleye Trail, and the Wyoming Walleye Stampede circuits in 2010 have qualified to fish this prestigious event. Over $24,000 in cash and lots of nice prizes will be awarded to the top finishers, including $10,000 to the winners.  Lake McConaughy is Nebraska’s largest Reservior at 35,700 acres, and is a great fishery that has seen water levels increase this year making it a whole new lake to fish. Lake McConaughy always has a large number of trophy walleyes taken each year in the 8-12 pound range, and the teams that unlock the secrets to catching these big fish will have a chance at a big check and being crowned the first ever Cabela’s Regional Walleye Champions.  Weigh-ins will start at 3:20 MST on Saturday and 2:20 MST time on Sunday. There will be a Kid’s Fishing clinic after the weigh-ins at 5:00 PM MST at Spillway Bay.  Children will have the opportunity to visit with many fishermen and learn different fishing techniques.  Kid will also receive a fishing pole and tackle.  Check out all of the results on Walleye Centrals live leaderboard at: www.walleyecentral.com
